Paisley has always been able to communicate with animals, and this has led to a career in veterinary medicine (and a fiance who wants to exploit her abilities), but when she accompanies her grandmother to Scotland, she suddenly starts hearing a man's thoughts. Is her gift changing?

Creighton is a bear shifter, so maybe a human who can communicate with animals is perfect for him? But are these Americans trustworthy or are they going to ruin everything for his clan?

The story was very easy to read, and had a good pace, with a blend of action and slower moments. Although some of the outcomes were predictable, there were enough surprises to keep me guessing exactly what was going to happen next.

It's a paranormal romance, so you expect to have to suspend your sense of disbelief, but I thought this book pushed that much further than necessary. The animals used human-like thoughts and were giving advice and all sorts, even though they weren't shifters, just regular animals. There was memory wiping and telepathy and witches with love potions and... Just too much.

Also, they plan to get married three days before Creighton's 30th birthday to break a curse that would otherwise kill him, but the story finishes before they marry, so we never know if she is really the one who breaks the curse (even though it's kind of obvious that she is going to be).
